Teen Already Busted Twice Hours Before Police Clocked Her At 125 MPH
Police removed the number plates from the F-Pace, but that didn’t stop the driver from speeding straight after

- Australian teen clocked at 215 km/h in a Jaguar F-Pace on major highway.
- Driver was stopped three times by police in under four hours for speeding.
- Police are requesting her Jaguar SUV be permanently forfeited to the state.
In a series of scarcely believable events, a 19-year-old girl from Sydney, Australia, managed to get pulled over three times in just four hours, lose her license, and have her vehicle seized, all during a single drive. Her excuse? She said she was trying to visit her family in Melbourne.
The high-speed trip of Jade Muscat started on April 12 this year when she was nabbed by police exceeding the speed limit by more than 20 km/h (12 mph) in a 110 km/h (68 mph) zone alongside the Hume Highway, a major highway traveling from Sydney to Melbourne. She was fined and allowed to continue her journey.

However, just an hour later, the young P-plater was pulled over by Highway Patrol police officers for a second time. This time, she was nabbed driving her flashy Jaguar F-Pace at 215 km/h (133 mph), almost double the posted speed limit. Muscat immediately had her license suspended and was issued a court attendance notice for driving at a dangerous speed and exceeding the speed limit by more than 45 km/h (28 mph).
License Suspended, Plates Confiscated
According to 7News, police also confiscated the number plates of her Jaguar F-Pace and placed a confiscation notice on the SUV’s windshield. However, not even this deterred the 19-year-old. Approximately two hours later, police received reports of a black SUV with no number plates weaving in and out of traffic on the very same highway.
Caught Again at 201 km/h
Police responded quickly, positioning themselves ahead of the speeding Jaguar, and used a radar gun to nab her driving at 201 km/h (125 mph). They chased her for several minutes until she finally decided to pull over.
She admitted to knowingly driving despite her license being suspended and said she had tampered with the number plate confiscation notice police had stuck to the F-Pace. She told police, “she needed to get to Melbourne to see family.”
She now faces multiple charges, including driving with a suspended license, tampering with a number-plate confiscation notice, driving in a dangerous manner, exceeding the speed limit by more than 45 km/h, and operating a vehicle during a confiscation period.
Muscat is scheduled to appear in court in August, and police have recommended that her Jaguar be permanently forfeited to the government.
